I agree it’s unlikely any time soon. but you really think there’s no limit to how bad US material conditions can get and still no meaningful pushback?

Maybe by that time there won’t be anything we can call an ““American government”” so you win again

An atmosphere of relentless irony (the site, not you personally) renders me incapable of a meaningful response to your post

Sorry comrade

Ps. I am pro-fun

He’s a leading voice for Orange Man Bad liberal “thought” and now there’s a narrative like he’s a resistance martyr or some shit

I don’t hate him personally but I can’t really respect any participant in the political conversation who can’t or won’t realize that the price of empire is blood, injustice, poverty and a human future. Affably welcoming ghouls onto your platform is also uncool

didn’t book down on it thoroughly but he did insist on saying “the Palestinian territories” when he had Ta-Nehisi Coates on (also a but currently saying some correct things about Palestina)

The whole political vibe is just How Liberals Wish It Was and Please Don’t Make Liberal White Men Uncomfortable

Another data point in the study of “most people believe what they want to believe” and another is all the time I’ve wasted talking to climate deniers*

Can you say more? How to access this and how does it work

I don’t have several hundred dollars to spend on all the mandatory DLC I don’t have.

I haven’t bought an expansion in at least 5 years and thus don’t own the most recent 19 DLC or so.

If by mandatory you mean “considered a must have” the serious stellaris heads may have some insights on that. AFAIK no DLC is literally mandatory

What else in strategy have you really enjoyed

Various total wars I really loved, long long ago (original shigun and medieval).

PRP’s story demonstrates the (rueful) value of electoral work. People get in, do the work, see how the deck is stacked and how it plays out, move left.

Respectfully, you don’t know me. I am no MAGA and it’s not over.

In the 50+ years since the Southern Strategy, do you see evidence that the Democratic Party is capable of systemic change, much less of leading the country toward it?

The two-party system has driven untold misery at home and abroad. What most Americans see as our past stability, many other humans see as looting the globe and driving its people into poverty and servitude.

The idea that change can only ever come through voting and elected representatives, around here, that’s called electoralism. No shade, many people of goodwill thought that was the best they could do. The most casual reading of history shows clear alternative paths.

FYI the Indivisible campaign in the US has attempted your proposal, Tea Party strategy from the liberal “left”

feckless [Dems]

The US Democratic Party is a patronage network for political donations and jobs in the field. This operation is successful on its own terms.

Awareness of political realities will move the conversation away from the totally fake, very well reinforced narrative that they are an opposition political party in the business of opposing anything, much less anything risky.

Comment too earnest and real to make snarky clapbacks on “foot shortages” 0/10 do not recommend

Seriously though, the fog of irony and nihilism is so heavy round here it can make threads with integrity and humanity even harder to take
